Shooting star signals more SGD gains - USD/SGD positional call

Singapore dollar after continues losing streak from last 3 months, it seems like making an attempt of recovery as a shooting star is spotted out at peaks, since daily stochastic is showing buying interest it is advisable to capitalize on these rallies for better entry points to stay short.

Leading indicators on monthly charts suggest prevailing price recoveries of SGD to sustain further and likely to evidence further dips in near future. RSI on weekly is beautifully converging to the price bounces right from below 30 levels.

Both RSI and stochastic oscillators are signaling indecision in overbought zones.

While an attempt of %D crossover of slow stochastic curve above 80 levels which is bought territory also suggest selling pressure are strengthened. To substantiate this bearish view we've seen recent price declines on daily charts that has slid below 21DMA.

Although you may likely to see some price spikes in a day or two, we would anticipate more dips in the weeks to come. As a result, we come up with suitable currency strategic framework so as to match this trend swinging for slight downside risks. With current USDSGD spot FX is ticking at 1.4270, place call ratio spread with 1:2 ratios.

Thereby, the strategy matches the puzzling abrupt rallies and certain short term declines so as to suit the corrective slumps and to take the advantage of overpriced calls by shorting.

While, the delta value becomes more and more insensitive as the USDSGD falls lower and lower and hence on the lower side, the delta value is zero.

Why call ratio spread: As the pair has made steep slumps and healthy recovery we see a neutral to bearish environment when you are projecting decreasing volatility (see from next 1 month to 3 month it's been gradually reducing).

Risk/Reward Profile: The risk is unlimited. The reward is the difference in the strike prices plus the net credit, multiplied by the number of long contracts.
